Dinamo Sassari bulks up with Cusin

Dinamo Banco di Sardegna Sassari reinforced its frontcourt by signing Italian national team center Marco Cusin. The big man arrives from Cantu, for whom he averaged 3.9 points and 4.6 rebounds in 12 Eurocup games last season and was among the competition’s leaders with 1.8 blocks per game. Cusin (2.11 meters, 29 years old) played in the Turkish Airlines Euroleague the season before that, also with Cantu. He has played his entire professional career in Italy. Cusin started his career with Trieste and has since suited up for Biella, Carife Ferrare, Fabriano Basket, Juvi Cremona, Scavolini Pesaro and Cantu. He has also played regularly for Italy since 2009. Cusin was among the EuroBasket 2015 qualifying rounds’ leaders in blocks with 2.8 per game this past summer.
